This is why the Federal Government is Messed Up


Seriously, this is the fucking shit that gets FED to the Federal government as INFORMATION on cyber security. No wonder the government is messed up.

Title: Diverse Workforce is the Key to Cyber Success, Experts Say

When it comes to cybersecurity, having a diverse workforce is the only way to succeed at staying one step ahead of adversaries, according to experts from the White House’s Office of the National Cyber Director and Walmart. At the RSA Conference, the private and public sector experts explained how a lack of diversity and inclusion poses an existential threat to the cybersecurity industry.

Really?? This is most STUPID shit I have ever read. Thanks Walmart! You are stupid too.

Camille Stewart Gloster, deputy national cyber director for technology and ecosystem security at ONCD, agreed with Duhart, emphasizing that “cybersecurity is a people issue.”

“Until we put people at the center of the conversation and make sure that it is a factor to developing a holistic threat model, we will continue to miss,” Stewart Gloster said.

“If we are focused on people, we have to be focused on all people – that is where the DEI [diversity, equity, and inclusion] component comes into this conversation,” she continued.
